EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century artwork, titled "A Hunter Shooting a Tiger Attacking his Elephant," showcases the intensity and danger of a traditional Asian hunt. The scene unfolds with two men in the heart of South East Asia, one mounted on an elephant and the other on foot, both engaged in a desperate struggle against a ferocious tiger. The hunter, with a determined expression, raises his gun to take aim at the tiger, which is biting and bleeding the mahout, or elephant rider, on the back of the elephant. The hunter's shield protects him from the tiger's claws as he focuses on the task at hand. The intricate details of the artwork, created using ink and opaque watercolor on paper, bring the scene to life, transporting the viewer to a time when hunting was an integral part of the Asian continent's heritage. This piece, from the late 18th century, is a testament to the courage and skill of the hunters of that era and the dangerous encounters they faced in the pursuit of their profession. The artwork is now part of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's (LACMA) extensive collection, adding to the rich history and cultural significance of the museum.
